Just so you know and others that read this post. I own the mini,
air 2 and the mavic pro and zoom. The best Drone in my opinion is the
MAVIC 2 AIR. The Mav 2 Air is a no brainer, especially up against the Mav 2 Zoom. The
Air 2's digital zoom is excellent and adequate. The only reason I like the Mav 2 Pro is that it can tolerate a little more wind and It Has a One inch CMOS sensor, allowing it too see more detail and color in low light situations. Why DJI could update the
Air 2's firmware , giving it 4x digital zoom, and not doing this for the Mav 2 Pro is strange. But still, those of you on a budget and with a little modification to the antenna system, THE MAVIC MINI is a very capable alternative. It just can't be flown in high winds. Especially, if the wind is blowing against the Mini on it's return flight. I lost one because the wind caused such a battery drain, and having no place to land , but a swamp, it was lost.
